Ola Shakes It Up

167 pp. January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-385-32235-6
(2) 4-6 Ola isn't happy about moving from her urban black neighborhood to a "cooperative community" in a white suburb. But the disgruntled senior citizens in her lifeless new neighborhood quickly recruit Ola to organize the local kids and convince them to join in stretching (and breaking) the community's more ridiculous rules. The story will attract readers with its humor and trouble-making agitator-protagonist.
